'You don't need to be thin, young, and a contortionist to do this program,' says instructor Peggy Cappy. Yoga for the Rest of Us is a yoga practice for people who might be inflexible, out of shape, or feeling aches and pains. Cappy presents three 20-minute routines that work separately or together. Part 1 is a series of warm-up seated stretches. Part 2 presents standing poses, holding a chair if needed. Part 3 is a flowing series of Sun Salutations, building stamina, and again using a chair if necessary, followed by relaxation. Public television yoga instructor Cappy teaches gently and quietly, accompanied by demonstrators of various ages and conditions. Recommended for people who thought that yoga was beyond them because of age, medical conditions, or fitness level, especially those with functional challenges, such as not being able to bend down or reach for a top shelf. --Joan Price

I am inflexible and have been working to try to gain it back before I lose it. I am not that old and should be more flexible.
This DVD is one I would recommend for anyone who is inflexible. The instructor is excellant with very good instructions for the main sections covered that are seated, standing and sun salutations. These are done in manner that are easy to follow and work with and I found them all doable though for me the seated and standing were good to start with before trying ... Read More
Rating:  - Truly for all of us
This yoga video is as it is described Yoga for the Rest of Us. It is ideal for anyone starting out and also great for anyone who wants to follow a basic practice. It is designed to accomodate those with physical limitations, lack of experience as well as those with a knowledge and ability with yoga. As a yoga teacher I frequently recommend this video as one that is accessable to many and very safe to do alone. Peggy Cappy's style is open and clear.
Rating: - Perfect for the middle aged and out of shape
My husband and I both love all of Peggy Cappy's DVD's. They are perfect for middle aged out of shape people who wish to regain their balance and flexibility. Peggy Cappy also has a very good yoga DVD for back care.
Rating: - Wonderful Yoga
I started yoga because I was inflexible and this is one of the DVDs I have been working with.
Peggy is excellant in explaining moves and positions and the moves can be done by anyone.
Since this is for the "Rest of Us" it is done at a pace that I found good as I started woking on yoga and pilates, and even though I have been practicing now for awhile, I still do not find it "slow" at all, though I am progressing. When I first started yoga, I never thought I would be able ... Read More
